Usage notes
ICAO code KBOS. Officially General Edward Lawrence Logan International Airport, named in 1943 for a Boston-born Spanish-American War officer. Two of the four aircraft hijacked on September 11, 2001, departed from Logan, and a memorial stands on the grounds. The airport's location means many approaches pass low over Boston Harbor.
